Not because theyโre careless. Because itโs faster, and nobody ever told them where the line is.
Today on the ๐๐๐ ๐๐ ๐๐จ๐๐๐๐ฌ๐ญ, Kree and Varun sit down in studio with ๐๐๐จ๐ฆ๐ข ๐๐๐ซ๐ข๐ฏ๐ข๐๐ซ๐, Chief Product Owner and VP of Product Management at ADP, where she leads Next Gen Payroll and the ADP Assist AI platform. The topic: the AI your team is already using, and the high stakes version of it, what happens when AI gets near your payroll and your peopleโs data.
The numbers behind shadow AI: ๐
๐ ๐๐% of employees now use AI at work, while only ๐๐% of organisations have a formal policy
๐ ๐๐% admit using AI their employer never approved, most on free tools with no data protection
๐ Shadow AI adds roughly $๐๐๐,๐๐๐ to the average data breach, per IBM
Naomiโs throughline is one every owner needs: banning these tools doesnโt work, because people just hide them better. The smart middle is approved tools plus clear guidance, so your team gets the productivity somewhere you can actually see and protect.
And where money and the law are involved, one rule holds. AI can draft, but a named human still has to decide. Anywhere AI touches pay, tax, or personal data, keep a person as the final sign off, and ask any vendor exactly where your data goes.
This week, ask your team one question with zero blame: what AI tools are you using, and for what? Youโre not running an investigation. Youโre turning on the lights. ๐๏ธ
